Post-Game Talk: Prerequiste for preseason pre-game talk Canadiens Vs. Devils

[Doublechin]

His buddy Nemec taken 2nd over all last season played the entire year in Utica and I would argue has probably surpassed Slaf because of it. Keeping him in the NHL last season was a mistake. They can change course right now bit probably wont.

He was better before that. You could see the IQ and the high odds of him becoming a ring general before the draft. Slaf never showed me anything other than I'm big and can score if given the space (which is a hard thing in the modern nhl)

He can't follow the game at modern day speed, Nemec is built for the modern game.

I mean he knows what he is getting to .

Do you hear anything about Caufield?

No one said the market would eat Caufield alive because Caufield has 10 times the skills.

I'll say it: if Slafkosvky was Caufield's size he'd have gone undrafted.

Oh man, Damphousee looks old.

And suddenly, once again, I’m confronted with my own mortality.

It’s a good thing I’m still so damn handsome.

I think it is pronounced Ran-by-hair.

This is not far fetched sadly.

 

[Doublechin]

It’s unfortunate because if he were drafted 5th overall and went back to Europe/AHL for the season and put up the numbers I believe he would’ve we’d all be pumping his tires right now and pencilling him in with Suzuki/Caufield

He would have gone 2nd to Jersey and we would have been lucky grabbing one of Cooley, Nemec or Jiricek (most likely)

Chantale has some serious work to do with Roy

 

[cphabs]

So guys who weren't in the scrimmage yesterday will play tonight. Maybe some who did play yesterday will play today, particularly those who are fighting for spots or contracts.

These are the players who weren't there yesterday:

D: Guhle, Barron, Mailloux, Reinbacher, Harris, Xhekaj, Demin (invite), Laaouan (AHL deal) & Ortiz (AHL deal).

F: Anderson, Slafkovsky, Newhook, Roy, Simoneau, Pezzetta, Beck, Farrell, Ylonen, Legare, Stephens, Condotta, Dufort (invite), Novak (AHL deal), Voyer (AHL deal), Yaremko (AHL deal)

G: Montembeault, Dobes & Vrbetic


In Reinbacher's case, if we're to go by what Gorton said at the golf tournament, maybe he'll get a preseason game in and most likely sent back to Kloten. So maybe he'll play tonight and after the game, they loan him back to his European team.

Kid needs to be in the AHL

don't fix him!

 

[CheldishGamibno]

Nice forecheck Slaf. People need to calm the f*** down lol

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

I still remember when there was a controversy between Hughes and Kakko since Hughes was seen as a player who did not progress in his draft year and was not going to be a center because of his size and defensive deficiency. Even Gorton said that they are thrilled with the 2nd OA since they had the easiest pick in the draft.

Funny how that worked out.

It hasn't done anything yet. If Kakko gets more of a chance under Laviolette he might end up looking like a #2 pick.

 

[Tyson]

And people were saying the same thing about Wright...and Reinbacher.

Let's just not draft in the top 10 anymore. Too many ogres among us.

Slaf may have been the right pick but it was evident after 9 games that he needed to play in a slightly lesser league....this is on Management. I am surprised at Hughes on this one.

I didn’t understand a word he said in his interview. I felt shame. My French slipping away…

 

[Skip Bayless]

Mailloux bruh...Bettman is watching

 

[PavelBrendl]

Roy looks like he's straight out of Tetreaultville or Sorel.

I work on freight trains and pass through Tetreaultville a few times a week. It’s the only place I’ve seen grown-ass adults putting anything from coins, to rocks, to boulders, to f***ing bike racks on the track in front of us, then running away thinking they’re super stealth.

So maybe it’s just a thicker accent then?

I remember going to Glasgow and not understanding anything- and those guys were speaking English.

Watching the Leafs game and they're saying Giordano grew.

The Leafs are feeding their players the Hutson supplements!

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

Great play up the neutral zone by Beck , nice puck control on the bouncing puck

I gotta get some of that!

I'm in favor of that option.

 

[zx81]

No doubt about that. He should have played in the AHL last season.

 

[Gustave]

WTF hahahaha Monty

 

[Fatbiggie]

Oups Monty

Loving Mailloux game right now!
